[PATCH] ftrace: avoid replacing the list func with itself

[Song Shuai]

The list func (ftrace_ops_list_func) will be patched first
before the transition between old and new calls are set,
which fixed the race described in this commit `59338f75`.

While ftrace_trace_function changes from the list func to a
ftrace_ops func, like unregistering the klp_ops to leave the only
global_ops in ftrace_ops_list, the ftrace_[regs]_call will be
replaced with the list func although it already exists. So there
should be a condition to avoid this.

This patch backups saved_ftrace_func by saved_ftrace_func_old
which will be compared with the list func before trying to patch it.
